Hi All.  
Arcdroid was stored 2 months, wrapped, dry, powered off, unplugged and undisturbed.

Went to power up and get power but no indicator light in the screen dial and screen is red.

Have tried reset and update but no response to anything.

Any suggestions most welcome!

Thanks, Diggers.

That’s a corrupted update file.  
1st boot without the USB or SD installed and see if that changes  
2nd do a fresh format of your USB and copy over the latest Simple Trace update from our website. Do a fresh update and it should be fine

Cheers
